Over the years with different suits, I've noticed varying opinions on how tight they should fit. Some like it comfortably tight, but some like it really tight. And some are between sizes.
I've tried suits that are too small. Might be ok while they're new and stretchy, but they're too restrictive to be practical, and too hard to get off. Just comfortably skintight (no gaps) would be my preference. Some of my suits have small gaps, but loose is never my thing.
How do you like yours?

Re: How tight do you wear your wetsuits
As I am not using my wetsuits for any sports and don't have big requirements for the range of motion I like to get mine a bit on the small side. Might have to get one that fits just perfectly snug without being too tight for prolonged and comfortable wear though.

That is also a big plus for me. Also wouldn't say no to have someone by my side that actively worked on getting out more difficult.

Re: How tight do you wear your wetsuits
Getting zipped up by someone else is always fun (unless your suit is so tight that you suffocate). Maybe they can untie the zip cord too so you can't touch the zip! Haha! Just make sure you're not stuck when you need to get out for real.PurplePhoenix wrote: ↑Sat Sep 15, 2018 12:08 pmAlso wouldn't say no to have someone by my side that actively worked on getting out more difficult.![]()
